Reading secures Premier League promotion

Reading capped a remarkable run of form by securing promotion back to the Premier League after a 1-0 victory at home to Nottingham Forest guaranteed a top-two finish in the second division Championship.

Reading, who has taken 46 points from a possible 51 over its last 17 matches, returns to the top-flight four seasons after losing its place in 2008.

Fans flooded on to the pitch in celebration after a victory at Madjeski Stadium that moved Reading, beaten by Swansea in last season's play-off final, on to 88 points from 44 matches, three ahead of nearest pursuers Southampton, who won 3-1 at Peterborough.

Southampton is poised to join Reading in gaining automatic promotion. The south coast club has a five-point advantage over West Ham United.

The top two go up automatically and the next four teams go through to the promotion play-offs.

You have no doubt been hearing a lot about the Paris Agreement and know that it pertains to climate change, but are too embarrassed at this stage to ask for an overall explanation of what it's all about.
